	The server is my own - I can modify it as I wish.

	What I am asking is whether things could be arranged so that 
specific clients - as in running on specific hardware - could connect 
from anywhere, whereas any other clients cannot, unless they come from 
specific IP addresses. I guess that ome could use the client's MAC 
address, but I don't know how.
